Hello,

How can I enable an arbitrary text highlighting in Eclipse IDE?

To explain what I mean go to

1. Help > Help Contents
2. Hit ctrl+f
3. Make sure "Highlight all matches" is checked
4. enter the text "he"

You will notice that all text occurrence contains "he" will be highlighted.


I want the same functionality for the main Editor window.

I'm not speaking about "Search" highlighting because that is a vary long and contains many user clicks way to do such a simple and IMHO very common task.


p.s. I'm not sure if this plugin http://colorer.sourceforge.net/eclipsecolorer/ could provide the described feature.


Thanks for the help,
Maxim.
